The office of the Dean of Student Life supports the educational mission of IU Southeast to maintain a caring community that is educationally supportive and honors diversity, innovation, loyalty, teamwork, mutual respect, and fair play. It does so by helping students to strive for academic excellence, providing support for students in times of challenge, crisis, and emergencies, as well as opportunities for students to engage in good decision making. I encourage you to fully utilize the campus resources available to you such as Campus Life, Student Success Center, Career Development Center, Center for Mentoring, Disability Services, and Personal Counseling Services. Please seek assistance before you find yourself in crisis. Together, we can help you navigate through the administrative processes and be an advocate for your success.
